Dear friends, Elecraft K3S owners, now I am sure that the K3S is a CW transceiver suitable only for the use of paddles with its internal keyer or external pc keying. I had already noticed with the Begali Intrepid bug that the K3S introduced extra points that were not my manipulation errors. Today, using a spectacular and magnificent Mecograph mod. 3 of 1908, restored to maximum efficiency, in transmission at about 25 wpm, the Elecraft K3S, both in qsk and in vox, generates a lot of errors in transmission. It generate understandable CW. The same bug used on a Ten Tec Corsair II and a Cubic 102BXA is instead perfect, with an excellent cw and without any errors. There is and has been certainly a problem with the key input circuit on the K3S. I hope that the same design and construction error will not happen again on the K4 Elecraft. Otherwise it will certainly not be a bug user transceiver. It is a lot better an IC7300, which my friend IK4DCT uses with his two Mecographs without any problems. Ian IK4EWX
